The abatement of premium for the year 1833, en Policies of five years' standing, under the first of the above plans, was 511.125. 3d. per Cent. The future annual abatement must vary according to the success of this branch of the Corporation's business. In the Fire Department, Assurances are effected at the lowest rates.

LAW INTELLIGENCE. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, Szpr. 26. Mr. Commissioner LAW sat on Tuesday night until nine o'clock. NEGLIGENCE OF CREDITORS—IN RE THOMAS JONES. Mr. CooKE applied in this case, on the part of an attorney, for the assigneeship ; two creditors bad been named and ono had declined, the other sought the office. Mr. Commissioner LAW said this case afforded an instance among the many, of the negligence of creditors. The insol vent was heard before him at Cardigan. No creditors appeared. He found he had fraudulently made over a bane, and he ad journed the case until the property was given up. Two credi tors were at the time named assignees. Some time after wards 481. was paid into Court, and the man discharged. On the money being found in Court, then an application came from an attorney. He should refuse the prayer. In a few days he should, under the new Bill, have the power to appoint a person who was not a creditor. The provisional assignee would divide the money, which would pay a good dividend, as the debts were only 771. Th e case was one amon g the many in which creditors might be benefited if they gave themselves a little trouble. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HO USE. A north of England woman named Ann Read, was charged with having pillaged the trunk of a French woman, named Harriet Manning. The details of this case pretty clearly ex posed the extensive system of smuggling carried on by women, between France and England. The complainant had, according to the account given by Childs, a constable, been several months ago apprehended upon a charge of smuggling, and sentenced to a fine of 100/. or imprisonment for twelve months. Sbe was, however, after repeated applications to the Board of Customs, discharged from prison after six months' confinement, and payment of 25/. penalty. She had been taken into custody at Blackwall, on board the Grand Turk, and the contraband goods were found upon ber person. Her trunk was taken in the steamer to the Custom House, and after she became aninmate of the prison she requested her friend the prisoner to clear it out of the stores. The prisoner, however, took advantage of her situation, and applied to her own purpose the contents of the trunk, and it was fer this robbery the prisoner was put to the bar. The LORD MAYOR—Do you know the complainant and the prisoner? Childs—Very well, my Lord. They are most no torious smugglers. Prisoner—l get my hying in as honest a way as anybody can, by hard labour. The LORD MAYOR—You don't seem to think anything about smuggling. Prisoner—There is no question about smuggling here, my Lord—be good enough to take that into consider ation. Childs—When I went to the prisoner's house I found three gallons of smuggled spirits in the bed, covered up with the bed clothes. Prisoner—Well, suppose you did, you did not find me with it, did you? The LORD MAYOR—You seem perfectly to understand what evidence is necessary to produce conviction. Prisoner—My Lord, I am a good deal backwards and forwards between this and the Continen,, and my husband being unable to work, I am obliged to maintain the family. A Custom House officer, named Jordan, said that the pri soner was perfectly right in stating that she was often on visits to the Continent. She and the complainant, in fact, belonged to a gang of the most active and successful smug glers in the metropolis. They had articles fitted to their bodies, by which they were enabled to convey contraband goods in inconceivably large quantities. They were in the habit of landing at Greenwich or its neighbourhood, because they were afraid to meet with the female searchers of London, and the officers, who knew their practices, durst not attempt to search them• Pri3ooCr--.VVe do the best we can for our families, my Lord, between the two countries. The LORD MAYOR —Arc there not regulations amongst the smugglers to maintain those who are subj ec t e d t o imprison ment, in conseq uence of illicit dealings? Jordan—They are all in excellent c ircumstances,my Lord, a n d li ve most com fortably. Th ese two aridthei r husbands are constant l y at t h e business ; an d when anything disagreeable occurs they go off to a FreIiCITI3R in this town, who is in the wholesale contra. band trade. The complainant said it was peculiarly b ar d upon her that while she was suffering in prison her friend should dispose of the goods in her trunk. The prisoner had supplied the complainant with money amoun ting to more than the value of the property in the trunk, which the complainant had requested her to take th e trouble to " clear out. Th e LORD MA YOR said, "you have taken the trouble to clear it out off. ctually, I think." The prisoner —But she has had the value. However, if your Lordship thinks the property ought to be restored to her , why I'll see what I can do in my next trip.—( A laugh.) The LORD MAYOR --I cannot detain you, for the ev id ence is not sufficient ; but I tell y ou that y ou are boun d in honour to restore the property of which you possessed yourself in so ugly a manner. Prisoner —Very well, my Lord, she shall be all right when I have luck. The LORD MATOR.--You seem to have a perfect command of the English language ; pray do you understand the French ? Prisons—Oh dear yes, any Lord. To do business properly people must understand it.—(A laugh. ) Jordan—She is perfectly well acquainted with it, m y Lord. They are both as well know trders as are to be found. The LORD MATOR--Well n , I a trust they will be p ropf . r l y watched. This exposure must surely check them ; b u t the y ree m (particularly the prisoner) to be regardless of the exer tions of the revenue officers. QUEEN- S Q UARE. Mr. Reid, a builder at Pimlico, yesterday preferred a charge against William Bunvood, for exciting him to commit a breach of the peace by a challenge to fight. Defendant vras ordered to give good bail to keep tht peace for six months. THAMES-OFFICE. - _ Yesterday Charles Dobson, a young man, who is very re spectably connected, was brought before Mr. GREZNWOOD, for final examination, on a charge of embezzling the sum of 1041. 18s. 9d., the moneys of Mrs. Elizabeth Hoare, the who finger, while in her employ as clerk. The prisoner, by the advice of his solicitor, declined saying anything, and was fully committed for trial. UNION-.HALL Yesterday Richard &litany, a wel-dressed man, was brought before Mr. Swanav, charged with stealing a cloth cloak and a linen shirt.—Committed. An elderly man, a native of Cronstadt, in Russia, with his clothes covered with mud, and other appearances of having bee" engaged in a debauch the previous night, was charged with being drunk and lying down - in the kennel of Blackman street. A p3licenian stated that he picked the defendant out of the kennel, lying in the mud, between twelve and one o'clock in the morning, and that had any vehicle happened to pass that side of the street it must have inevitably gone over him. Tho policeman added that the defendant was so intoxicated at the time that they were compelled to place him on a stretcher, and convey him to the station-house. Defendant—l am ashamed of myself; the policeman ought to have horsewhipped me. The Magistrate said that it wm a pity he had not con sidered the shame of getting drunk before he put it into practice. Defendant—l deserve to have bad the knout applied. I admit it all for making such a beast of mys elf. Oh I (added he emphati ca ll y ) i t was a pity that some of the carriages had not rolled over meat the time, and broke some of my bones to teach me nut to get drunk again.—(Laughte r.) The Magistrate said that there were slight hopes of a re formation in his habits if it required such means to deter him from indulging in drink. The fine of .5 s. was then inflicted on the defendant. On Tuesday night a meeting-, which had been co nvenedby the Anti-Corn Law A sso ciation, for the purpose of hear;eg Colonel Thompson deliver a lecture on the propriety of esta blishing free trade in corn, was held at the Mechanics' Insti tution, Southampton-buildings, Chancery-lane. The anxiety to hear the lecture was so great, that the theatre of the Institution was densely thronged long before the hour appointed for the commencement of the proceedings. At half-past eight Colonel THOMPSON entered the theatre, and amid much cheering proceeded to say, that they had met together for the purpose of communicating their ideas on a subject which was now attracting a considerable and increased share of public attention. He meant that which was of the utmost importance to all, the principle of free trade, and more especially of a film trade in corn. He would proceed to lay before them the views he had long entertained on the subject, with perhaps something in addition which the circumstances of the times had suggested to hire. He would commence with the simplest statement of the case. He would ask them what was the reason why they travelled in a steam-boat in prefe rence to dearer and more expensive modes of conveyance? No doubt their answer would be, because it was cheaper and . more convenient. But then the proprietors of those other conveyances will say, that though it might be cheaper and more convenient to the public to go by the steam-boats, it was by no means se convenient to them that the public should do so. Suppose a man should pay only 20s. for a steam conveyance, whereas he would have to pay 30a. by a coach I the coachman would say, that although such a man may save thereby 10s., he (the coachman) would lose 10a. How is that objection to be got over? Is it not clear that the man who saves the lOs. will not throw it into the sea, but will lay it ont 011 some article of trade—some comfort or luxury which he may want—so that the sum which the coachman loses in the case will not be lost to the public ; while therre is the advantage that tke man who makes the saving will travel more comfortably and expeditiously, as well as cheaper.—( Cheers.) Suppose the money so saved is taken to a tobacconist to purchase luxury for the nose, is not it as good for trade that the tobacconist should have it as the coachman ? Was it not clear to them that this made a complete balance, and an answer to any complaint on the score of general injury to trade? Was that a good reason or not? Did it, or did it riot, show that it was prudent, politic, and right for every man to go to the cheapest source from which his wants could be sup plied.—( Cheers.) Not to do so, not to act on that rule, would be to do away with all the improvement which in creased knowledge had effected in society.—(Cheers.) If he had in any degree established that position, he would go a step further in the process of illustration. Ile would suppose that the owner of the steam-boats plying on our British rivers, was a Frenchman—that steam-boats had been a French invention— a French patent—and that the 20s. were to go to a French man—would that make it unadviseable to go by the cheap conveyance even though it belonged V a Frenchman? Would not the 20s. go for British goods Of some kind to pay the Frenchman—would not Manchester or Birmingham, or some other town furnish the Frenchman with goods to the amount of 20s. ? It would be then, sifter all, no more than a transfer of advantages, which could make no injury to com merce in the aggregate. It might, undoubtedly, be more con venient to the English coachman that they should travel in his vehicle ; but when they went to purchase shoes they did not go to a dear shoemaker, because it might be more con venient to such shoemaker that they should be purchased from him than from the cheaper one on the other side of the way.—( Laughter.) Suppose again, the instance of the trade in English gloves—for it was clear he was going to gain upon his audience by one step at a time. Undoubtedly, it was inconvenient to the English glover that the trade should be taken from him, but that was not a reason why the public should be forced to avoid the cheaper mar ket. The 2s. which may be paid to the French glover will be expended in some article of trade, which the Frenchmen will take from this country. The Birmingham man or the Manchester man will be benefited by some article of manu facture which he will have to prepare. At the same time, the is. that will be saved in the purchase of the French gloves will be applied to some other use, and give the consumer something instead of nothing in return. Thus he thought he had established the great principle—that free trade is not injurious, because to the rest of trade there is a balance in the aggregate ; while to that particular class of traders who trade that they may consume—( Cheers)_ there was a galls to the precise amount of having something for the difference of price, instead of nothing. There was still another objection to be considered. Suppose some per sons were to say, " You arc destroying our breed of horses ; of what importance is a good supply of horses to a great mili tary nation like Great Britain l"—( Hear.) The answer is, that no wise man rears horses for more than they are worth. If we gave up the advantage of steam conveyance for the sake of encouraging the breed of horses, we should not only pay the natural price of the horses, but we should also be paying an additional price, equal to the advantage which we should forego by giving up steam conveyance. They had all heard of the Navigation Laws which had been abrogated after so much difficulty and loss of time. These were supported for the purpose of buying sailors for more than they were worth. We were to bear the burden •f a dear commerce in place of a cheap, on pretence of increasing the breed of the sailor animal.-- ( Laughter.) It was a wonder we had never heard of a pro position for Horse navigation-laws.—( Loud laughter.) He thought it quite fair to run one absurdity against another, for the purpose, if possiblo, of kedeking out the brains of both. But we might take a still simpler instance of the operation of free trade. Suppose a wood-cutter were to say, " You have paid me two shillings a day for cutting wood, but I wish that you would allow me to cut it with a blunt axe, so that I may be at work on the same quantity three days in place of two." The master would naturally reply that he preferred to keep the money himself, and procure himself some comfort or luxury by its expenditure. But why were the industrious classes to he cut off from the general benefit of foreign com merce ? They might not be great consumers ; but all of them were some. He would take the case of the poorest mechanic within hearing ; did he use no foreign goods himself or in his family ? Where was the wife who had not by her some bit of foreign produce? All were interested in letting nothing more than was necessary he taken from the consumer. (Cheers.) But the operative classes might say, " Would it not be a fine thing if we had each a protection in turn." Now, could that be any more than agreeing to injure one another turn and turn about? —( Laughter.) Suppose one class of artisans were to have the privilege of taking toll from all persons passing Charing-cross during a day, and suppose it came to every other class in turn, what would that amount to—(Laughter and cheers)—but the old story of the monkeys that fed out of one another's pans, and thought they were doubling the suppers of the whole ? ( Much laughter.) But it was objected that the foreigner would not be paid in goods, he would have money. And what then? Suppose the foreigner would take nothing in pay ment but Turkish coffee, in what way would that injure us? Would there be any consequence except a greater import of Tut kish coffee in exact proportion to the export contem plated? And suppose, instead of Turkish coffee, the foreigner would take nothing but money. What is money ? It is no longer thought to be a magical power, a talisman which forces one man to labour for another; money is valuable be cause it is made of metals which have always been coveted by mankind for various reasons—their scarcity, and the conse quent fact that they are evidences of wealth ; besides which, they really have advantages in beauty and conrenience, in evi dence of which, why did every mechanic present get silver tea spoons instead of pewter, as fast as bad law-makers would leave him the ability ?—( Cheers. ) Those metals, then, being valu able in themselves, when formed into small pieces and stamped, made the most convenient medium of exchange known among mankind. There was no expense in stamping but what every body was willing enough to pay. It was only like what their old friend Mr. Hunt did, when he put his stamp upon his British black ing ; they all paid him cheerfully enough for that.--( Laugh ter.) But it was said if they paid in money, it would reduce the circulating medium. So it would ; but by the very act it would create a demand for an immediate import of gold and silver to the same amount from the countries were these things grow, for which there must be payment in English goods. The gold and silver coins would rise in value, which would create the demand, the interest, for making more; just as in the op posite case, we had experience enough that if by the addition of paper or otherwise, the circulating medium was increased, sovereigns would go the melting pot—(A laugh) —and why should they not ? Dishonest Governments had tried to hinder it; but with the help of heaven and honest Jesee, he hoped they would always be disappointed.—( Loud laughter.) He hoped so, because there was no use in letting Governments be lieve they succeeded in one foolery ; it was only encouraging them to try another. He did not say that every 101. going out to the Continent was to be visibly answered by goods going out to South America to that amount ; that was like expect- ing to find the effect in China of every bucket of water thrown in at London.bridge ; but it was equally certain the level must be preserved. There was another objection which had been urged from highly respected friends ; they had asked, could not the system of free trade be applied to all the various trades in turn, with the effect of ultimately depressing wages in all ? To that he would answer, that there appeared to be one point omitted, which was, that where it depressed wages in one part of the community, it necessarily increased them in another.---( Cheers.) This seemed to be the missing portion of the argument. The question was further connected with another subject indirectly, which had created great heart burnings, namely, the subject of machinery. He believed thzt people had by this time learnt, that machinery they could not, and would not prevent ; and he hoped that others would soon be equally convinced, that free trade they could not, and would not prevent. By the introduction of machinery articles for consumption were rendered cheaper. At one time, there was a great outcry against the threshing machine. By that machine the price of threshing corn was diminished, and who had the benefit of that? The cater of bread.-- (Cheers)—and what lie saved by it he expended on some other trader, and at the same time hash something in return. Putting all things together then, it emerged as the final result, t that machinery, lik e f ree t ra d e , was the cause of no loss to trade in general, b u t th e cause of great gain to the traders who 'went by the name of the consumers. He now came to a pot* which presented itself, to him ht least, under somewhat of it novel aspect, and that was, that after calculating the commercial leases from prohibiting the introduction of a certain article.. there might be another long account of national mischief. arising out of the reels° nature of the commodityyrohibited.. For instance, if the Veda put down was in sticking-plaster, there would arise a loss to commerce, but there would be no great outcry of national suffering besides, because they could all do tolerably well without sticking-plaster.—(Cheers.) Let it, again, be the trade in foreign witte; no doubt that would be a great loss to commerce ; it would cat down some men's luxuries and others' comforts ; but wives and children would not go wailing about the streets besides, because they were cut down from Port to Elder-berry and to ale. But if the Govern ment chose to prohibit the introduction of the real n ecessaries of life, then the mischief might be something incalcu labl y different.—(Che ers .) Corn was the staff of life of every man, but more particularly of that man whose poverty prevented him from obtaining much to eat besides.—(Chem s. ) Would he, therefore, be blamed for saying, he would leas e conlMerciai men to cast up their losses at their leisure, and enter now upon the additional miseries which are created by keep i ng f oo d f rom the working population—( Cheers)—or„ which was the sante tilling, putting a small loaf into the hands of the man who wante d large one.—(Cheers.) H e would at once put a case which in his opinion would be illustrative of the evils under which they laboured. Suppose, for in stance, that Manchester were to be inclosed with walls of brass, and that it was proposed to ,keep out all corn except such as was grown by the residents w i,:hin the walls, in gar dens and in flower-pots.—(Hear, and laujhter.) It was an scope was exag exaggerated supposition, to be sure ; a mien.. geration, and they used it as they did a inicr:scoPe, for the purpose of seeing the evils that existed.—( i . .:sear , hear.) Would any of the working classes stand up and ree' l Y , that the propr!etors of the flower-pots would be greatly en. , iched thereby, and that the riches thus acquired would be diftn.ced through every grade of the community ?—(Cheers.) Tha' was the system which their opponents had advanced. They argued, that if the manufacturers gave thirty shillings for the s tine quantity of corn instead of twenty, the landlords with that would be able to buy three yaids of cloth of them instead of two.—( Hear, hear.) Tell it not in Birmingham, name it not in Manchester, that such an argument bed been employed.— ( Cheers.) He was a landlord himself—a little one—but he could not find in his heart to present himself to them with such an argument.—( Cheers.) There was no end of going over all the possible fallacies; but as a summary prescrip tion, he would advise them, whenever they were hard p ressed on any point, to try it on the case of walled-up Manche ster ; and there would be no great hazard in the conclusion, that what was true in one latitude and longitude, was true in anotLer.— ( Hear, bear.) And now he would eater on the peculiar eton sequences of fixing' a prohibition upon food.—(Hear, hear.) The greatest improvern!•nt that had been made in the science of National Economy, during what might be called the time of the present generation, was ...fleeted by the discovery of Malthus on the subject of popui.:tion, who although he had written things which might be wrested to the wrong, had propounded doctrines which never bad been confuted. He it was that first pointed out the gr's:at fact, that men could not live without food—(A laugh)—for alter all, that was very nearly the sum and subst anc e o f w h a t h: had ad vanced ; but he had omitted one very important the: g, viz., the practical means which should be taken to increa. , e the quantity.—(Hear, hear.) He bad shown, that in a new country little difficulty was experienced by the increase of mouths. Adam Smith had stated that in the North Ame rican Colonies as they then existed, a widow with a family of small children was courted as a sort of fortune ; and all of us knew, how yery far this was from being the case in our time and neighbourhood.—( Hear, and a laugh.) But in America this was not only probai,:e 7 but true ; because when they grew up they became able by the:" labour to repay their previous . rearing. In a new country an increase of hands produced an increase of food ; but it was not possi6 l ,e that in as old coun try, hands could be made to produce food is the same propor tion. We lacked food here, sot for the want of hands, but because they could not be employed so as to produce as much food as they themselves must consume during the process ; it was plain that to set a man to grow a bushel of corn, if he must cat two bushels during the process, was a lame kind of operation. Their only remedy then, was to have the oppor tunity of obtaining more corn from newer countries by commerce, or be reduced to the alternative of sub mitting to more fasting at home.—(" Hear," and cheers. ) It was never meant by Providence, that its goodness should be intercepted by legislative enactments ; he trusted, there fore, that the people would never cease from the exertion of such legislative power as they had,—and if they had not enough —get more.—( Great cheering.) Malthus had further. shown by what means population was kept down to the le eel of food. In the richer classes, the effect was to a great ex tent produced by the dread which all people had of descend ing from the station to which they had been accustomed; and in the poorer, by the dread of actual want of food. But sup posing that population still went on—what was the result then? Malthus had said, it must be cut down by two causes, Misery, and Vice, which was itself a cause of misery and was created by it in turn. By these two causes then they must be killed off; and killed off they were—did not we see it every day ?—(llear.) Did we not see the police going about the streets—necessarily, perhaps, so far as that only was concerned—driving wretched creatures into a corner to die quietly, and not trouble the richer public with their suf ferings.—(Hear.) There had been another objection to foreign corn, which was, that if it was let in, we should soon populate up to it. Why was not that argument extended to our dinners? What we intended was, to have another din ner to-morrow, and the day after that. And in the same manner with respect to corn, when we had peopled up to what we had, he trusted we should be able to know where to look for more. But if men are ever to gaits this liberty, they must look for it by their own exertions, and the use of such means as were effective in other cases where crime was to be depressed. For his part he had made up his mind--and he should like to make the statement in another place than this — (Cheers)—never to be art or part in any measrire for the removal of the Corn-laws, which did not include, after a gradu a l re d uct i on o f t h e tax on f ore i gn corn , home-grown imposition o f an equal tax by the same d egrees on cor n , t o b e cont i nued for twenty-one years, un l ess t landlords chose to redeem it by an equivalent tax on rent. —(Cheers.)

And if they would look abroad, they would see that now was the accepted time.—(Cheers.) There was a great power rising in the political horizon—one of the phenomena whirls heaven had decreed should hold a distin guished place in human history. Those who had the muscle, had got the know ledge.—(Cheers. ) Why should they be led like oxen to the slaughter, when they had ceased to have the ox's senselessness ?—( Cheers.) The masses were moving to demand admission to their share of legislative power—and why ? Because here—here—theyhad the evidence, that men without their share of legislative power are slaves, and sure to be oppressed.—(Cheers.) Instead of there being opposition between the two questions, there was union ; the Kant Suffrage, and the Corn-laws, were two weights both dragging the same way. He hoped the numerous classes would never relax in their exertions till they bad carried them both.—(Cheers.) If the people went on firmly they must succeed.( Continued cheering.) What tribula tions they might pass through, it was not for him to foretell; but there never was an uprising of the mases in any nation like what was occurring now, which did not succeed in the end.—( Great cheering ) How much mischief took place during the operation, was at the choice of the opposing side. Cheers.) It was no slight thing they were struggling for; they were contending for the powcr of being happy here, and, so far as one might be dependent on the other, hereafter. It did surprise him much, to see the view which men of name and fame, high professors, great sticklers for religion and morality, had taken upon this question, with all its , bearings on the morals of the classes to be starved, and more than ;11, the monster immorality of war. For instance, there was a man who in one way had undoubtedly secured the name of great,—one to whom humanity was decidedly in debt,—. but whose biographers had done more to renew the example of naughty Ham, than could be parallelled since the first accident. —(Laughter.) Of this man it had been announced, that he found it written,—" Provide things honest in the sight of all men," and therefore went and voted for the Corn-laws.-- (Great laughter.) What a glorious text for aborder chaplain, when the last hough was in the pot, and the spurs were laid on the chieftain's table as a sign it was time to be pricking f„rth to fill thetlarder.—( Laughter.) Such are the " falls of the strong and follies of the wise." But there was another reason why the present was the time. Did they not see the*, setting aside the rising power be had mentioned, the othcr great parties in the State were at a balance among themselves ? ( Cheers.) Was there anything unrea sonable in expecting that, acting on the same principle which makes a sea captain desire to command a first-rate instead of a fifth or sixth, the great leader who gave Catholic Emancipation —that mighty stride in religious civilization—( Cheers)—might prefer being the minister of a great State rather than a little one, and open his eyes to the policy of being the instrument of another liberation ?—( Cheers.) Does this hold out no prospect ; does it act as no spur upon the other side? Has either side been without its faults ?—( Hear)—and is there, perhaps, much to choose ?—( Cheers. ) However that mey be, between two—thieves Sir Francis Burdett calle d th em — ( Much laughter)—honest men hare a right t they can to come by their own.—( Laughter.) ne one, we want only the common right of all men.— f o ot upon the line people,(Cheers.)

Though even there, if the baboons are spitefully inclined, he may be between " the devil and the deep sea."— Sir Jaws Alexander's Expe dition of Discovery into Africa,
